I forge my own path while taking in the experiences and knowledge of those before me. Because of that not all what I say and believe to be true coincide with previous teachings. This also means my beliefs and knowledge changes as water carves rock. Tested and tempered through meditation, worship, and communion with those that dwell in the spiritual plain.

Self Corruption:

This is a dangerous source of power. Its danger lies in its potency and its potential addictive effect. One can spiral down a path of ruin by chasing this power. I do not advocate complete avoidance but to excersise caution and restraint.

As stated in the TOS Unlawful things are not welcomed here, and id add such things are not needed on your paths.

Self corruption aligns one soul with the darkness. Its in that alignment that you feel power. With each corrupting act that alignment grows stronger.

Some have testified to curruption requirements needed as they build more powerful rituals. Its in my personal experience that this is true. But these requirements are different for each soul.

Inevitably one will reach a crossroads on this path. Know that you dont need to cross lines you morally do not want to. Know that there's many more ways to gain power and increase one's dark affinity.
